Sound unceremonious? If you’ve taken digital video at the beach or anywhere on a windy broad daylight, you’ve quite dealt with sound degrade-outs as hear tell of take fright whips history your camera’s built-in mic. hip camcorders have had off-dampening circuitry for ages. Alas, most digital cameras still don’t.

Thankfully, Stephen Uber sent a active DIY solution to the popphoto blog: Make a windscreen by taping the gauze-like padding of an adhesive bandage more than your camera’s mic. (It’s usually a single pinhole on the advance face of your camera.) Voila! Wind noise dramatically reduced.

(A perfect mod for the flip video so numerous of you told us you loved.)
